À propos de l'auteur

T. Edward Fox has existed in fact and fiction since 1971 when author Tom Hudson was given that nickname to help him throw off unwanted attention from an over-amorous teen girl. He/they are responsible for more than 50 short stories and novella in the worlds of Tom Swift. Plus, Hudson has been responsible for more than 20 novels in the genre since 2009. He types quickly if not a bit sloppily, relying on spell checkers and reader patience. A lot! Mr. Hudson has existed since 1955 and is the byproduct of over-amorous teen lust and a lack of available birth control. He holds neither of those against the people who created him and is actually happy that he was put up for adoption. Things ended up in his favor! He, a wife and dog live in the frequently damp Pacific Northwest.
